Send test messages

Use this section to verify the functionality of the Message Connector by sending a test fax or email. Both tests work by sending a message in a loop (Message Connector -> Message Connector). KC Plug-In will then import the message to Kofax Capture.

Send a test fax

  1. Start Message Connector Monitor utility from the Kofax Import Connector group in the Windows Start menu.
  2. On the menu, click Test Fax.
  3. In the Number to Dial, enter a number. For a test message this can be any number.
  4. Click Send Fax.
  5. Wait until the text "Server returned ok" is displayed.
  6. On the menu, click Outbound > Processed. After some time you will find the sent fax. Optionally, you can click Inbound > Pending and view the message there, if the KC Plug-In service is not running. Otherwise, you will find the test fax in Inbound > Processed.

Send a test email

  1. Start Message Connector Monitor utility from the Kofax Import Connector group in the Windows Start menu.
  2. On the menu, click Test Email.
  3. In the To field, enter an email address. For a test message this can be any address.
  4. Click Send Email.
  5. Wait until the text "Server returned ok" is displayed.
